Elson Liu, a Rackham student,
proposed that the group work on
forming a volunteer-based note-
taking service for students who
need it.
"It's a simple and meaningful
first step," Liu said.
With fall semester ending this
week, the group made plans to
continue its work next month. A
tentative list of projects the group
plans to undertake will be com-
piled this week, and the group will
decide on which ones to pursue
next month, Edevbie said.
"I feel like we got a lot of the
issues surrounding disabilities
on the table," he said. "There's
still time to get more, but I think
(yesterday's meeting) was a really
good starting point." '

DALAI LAMA
From Page 1A
cized the awarding. of the medal,
saying it would harm China's rela-
tions with the United States.
China invaded Tibet in 1950, and
the Dalai Lama fled the country in
1959. He has remained in exile in
India ever since.
The Dalai Lama's visit, which
comes during the LSA China
Theme Year, will be his second to
the University. The Dalai Lama
came to the University for three
days in 1994, where he received the
Raoul.Wallenberg Medal, an honor
given to someone who has made
outstanding humanitarian efforts.
During the Wallenberg Lecture,
he said "we are from all directions
and speak different tongues" but
humans have "tremendous con-
structive potential."
GOOGLE
From Page 1A
more than 60 percent last year. The
year before that, it nearly doubled.
"That's the kind of growth that
radically affects how you funda-
mentally structure a company in
your operations," he said.
Matossian said Google is made
up of a number of smaller, lesser-
known divisions that deal with
specific goals. Google AdWords and
AdSense, for example, take care
of Google's advertising develop-
ment and sales. Google moved the
AdWords division headquarters to
Ann Arbor in 2006.
"Most people think of Google
as that search company," he said.
"Wall Street thinks about Google
as that advertising company, and in
many senses it is."
Inthecompany'sadvertisingagree-
ments, Google doesn't make a profit
by just displaying an ad - someone
has to be click on the ad for Google to
receive money, Matossian said.
"Google onlygets paidwhensome-
one clicks on the ad," he said. "So
there's this strong incentive in the
companyto have very relevantads."
Matossian said Google Opera-
tions only serves within the com-
pany - it does no work outside of
Google. This opens up the lines of
communicationbetween hisbranch
and branches of the company that
need hardware or other services.
"With internal customers, yes,
we can do alot of close collaboration
with developers over hardware, as
well as the customers on the other
end of the chain," he said. "We don't
have a distribution channel to asso-
ciate with, at least an external one,
we have our own internal distribu-
tion channel that handles logistics
as well."
TENURE
From Page 1A
committee representing his or her
college, such as the College of Lit-
erature, Sciences and the Arts or the
College of Engineering.
Finally, a University-wide com-
mittee reviews the tenure applica-
tion and decides whether or not
to recommend the candidate for
approvaltoUniversityProvostTere-
sa Sullivan. Sullivan decides wheth-
er to recommend the professor to
the University Board of Regents,
which officially grants tenure.
Still, some students have pub-
licly criticized the University for not
awarding tenure to more minority
professors, which they say would
better reflect the diversity among
University students.
More recently, a viewpoint that
appeared in The Michigan Daily on
Wednesday criticized the Universi-
ty for denying tenure to five female
"professors of color" this year.
University spokeswoman Kelly
Cunningham said only one of the
five professors was actually denied
tenure, while final decisions for the
other four professors have yet to be
made.
Kurashige said contested tenure
decisions often involve candidates
working in fields like women's stud-
ies and American culture, which
tenure committees might view as
less scholarlythan more established
subjects like English and history.
"The issue of what really counts
as academicwork, ofwhoseresearch
is truly deemed academic, has never
been resolved," Kurashige said.
Kurashige said the subjective
nature of tenure decisions is even
more evident when a professor holds
joint appointments in two Universi-
ty departments.
